2009 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	The caravan style arm rests are ugly but extremely comfortable. see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Very comfortable to enter and exit. Very comfortable to sit in for long trips. see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Looking for familly smallish SUV and our other option was a RAV-4, the CR-V felt like it had better hip and leg room in the rear. see full Honda CR-V review

2009 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr SUV 180-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	Could not find a comfortable position, even with a power seat. see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Roomy enough, but materials feel cheap. Bench is very thin and hard on long trip. Good leg room, but overall not as nicely done as the VW Tiguan. see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	Seats need another couple of inches of depth to provide anyone over six feet tall with proper thigh support. A little on the firm side after a couple of hours. Could also be improved with better lateral support. Not a deal breaker unless you expect a Volvo type lounger. see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	In typical Japanese Small Car fashion, the front seats have very little thigh support for a 5ft 10inch person. The back support and position can be quite painful over 500 or more miles. This marred the ownership experience see full Honda CR-V review
2008	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Headrest could not be adjusted comfortably. see full Honda CR-V review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2018 Kia Stinger

2018 Kia Stinger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2018	Spring for the top-of-the-line Stinger GT2, and the Kia's driver seat gains power adjustments for its side bolsters and cushion length. The tested car was a GT1, yet I did not miss these adjustments. The seat fit me very well without them. I did miss the GT2's ventilated seats on hot days. And if your front seat passenger requires 4-way adjustable lumbar or either of you desires upgraded leather, then you'll also want the top trim. The tested Audi S5 Sportback was fitted with optional ventilated seats. Unfortunately, upgrading to these seats deletes the otherwise standard power-adjustable side bolsters (and massage function), and in this car I did miss having them. Compared to the Kia's, the Audi's seats are much firmer and not nearly as form-fitting. In my rating, I've assumed that the S5 Sportback's standard seats can be adjusted to provide better support than the optional ventilated seats. Otherwise I'd rate the Kia's front seats "much better." Moving to the back seat, in either car headroom should be just enough for adults up to about six feet in height. This is a big improvement over the initial iteration of the S5 Sportback. That car never made it to North America because of a severe rear headroom deficiency. When it comes to rear knee and leg room, the Stinger offers about two-and-a-half more inches. Rear seat passengers are likely to prefer the Kia, especially if they can't quite fit behind a tall driver in the S5. see full Kia Stinger review
